1. The MAIN event (Teams of 3) – Here each team member will complete a full triathlon. A transponder attached to the ankle of each team member captures the team member’s time for each leg with the time ending once the course has been completed, with the team member running across the finish line. Each team member will receive their own result which will combine with other team members for a total team time. Teams are mixed gender.
2. The RELAY event (Teams of 2 or 3) – Here you and your teammates will divide up a triathlon, with each person completing either the swim, the bike leg or the run to combine for a single time. In this event one person can do two legs if they choose. Teams are mixed gender.
3. The SOLE Proprietor event (Individual division) – Here you compete as an individual against all other individuals by gender in the division. You will complete all three legs of the triathlon.
